One interpretation of the Gospel of John is that Jesus, as the Passover lamb, was crucified at roughly the same time as the Passover lambs were being slain in the temple, on the afternoon of Nisan 14.

The scriptural instructions specify that the lamb is to be slain "between the two evenings", that is, at twilight.

By the Roman period, however, the sacrifices were performed in the mid-afternoon.
